  2. Volt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volt

    They made the volt equal to 10 8 cgs units of voltage, the cgs system at the time being the customary system of units in science. They chose such a ratio because the cgs unit of voltage is inconveniently small and one volt in this definition is approximately the emf of a Daniell cell , the standard source of voltage in the telegraph systems of ...

  3. Voltage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage

    The SI unit of work per unit charge is the joule per coulomb, where 1 volt = 1 joule (of work) per 1 coulomb of charge. [citation needed] The old SI definition for volt used power and current; starting in 1990, the quantum Hall and Josephson effect were used, [10] and in 2019 physical constants were given defined values for the definition of all SI units.

    Hence, it has a value of one volt, which is 1 J/C, multiplied by the elementary charge e = 1.602 176 634 × 10 −19 C. [2] Therefore, one electronvolt is equal to 1.602 176 634 × 10 −19 J. [1] The electronvolt (eV) is a unit of energy, but is not an SI unit.

    1.5 V Alkaline battery AAAA, AAA, AA, C or D battery [17] 3.3 V One of the most common low voltage CMOS digital circuit supply voltages. 5 V USB power, used for example to charge a cell phone or a digital camera. [18] Also one of the most common digital circuit supply voltages for both TTL and CMOS technologies. 6 V

    However, an average bolt of positive lightning (from the top of a thunderstorm) may carry a current of 300 to 500 kiloamperes, transfer a charge of up to 300 coulombs, have a potential difference up to 1 gigavolt (a billion volts), and may dissipate 300 GJ of energy (72 tons TNT, or enough energy to light a 100-watt light bulb for up to 95 years).

  7. Volt-ampere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volt-ampere

    The volt-ampere (SI symbol: VA, [1] sometimes V⋅A or V A) is the unit of measurement for apparent power in an electrical circuit. It is the product of the root mean square voltage (in volts) and the root mean square current (in amperes). [2] Volt-amperes are usually used for analyzing alternating current (AC) circuits.
